[ENG]
The collective volume Aspects of Time in Jewish and Christian Exegesis (edited by Maren R. Niehoff and Christoph Markschies, De Gruyter, 2026) focuses on the important research question of how time is understood and interpreted, as well as how it is given theological meaning in the Jewish and Christian exegetical tradition of antiquity. The volume, the fruit of the Chronoi research center (Berlin), includes five studies on time as it is understood by ancient Jewish and Christian writers, with particular reference to Philo, Josephus, the rabbis, Origen, Jerome, and Philoponus. The contributors to the volume emphasize that conceptions of time are closely connected with the interpretation of Scripture, philosophy, and the formation of religious identities. Its interreligious and interdisciplinary character should also be noted, since it highlights the interactions between Judaism, Christianity, and Greco-Roman thought. The volume is freely accessible and deserves the attention of all those interested in biblical interpretation, the ancient concept of time, and the dialogue between theology and philosophy.
